if theres no western version of the story, then thoughts of pro-china propaganda instantly spring to mind... "look at our less-able neighbours, their country is dissolving whilst ours lives on!"
but now i'll look for an english version.
hehe, no, cant find one. is the chinese version from a reliable source?

Believe me, Chinese media never delivers rubbish, they may not talk about something (limitation of free speech), but they NEVER talk rumors.
This is reported by a Russian News Agency.
It is also commented by the Chairman of Russian Duma TODAY.
the CIA report says Russia may break into 6-8 countries.

so if its from a reliable source we've got to think about why it hasnt been released on western media yet... did the CIA want to keep that report secret for a bit longer? but chinese or russian agents thought otherwise, and managed to obtain a copy?
EDIT - dammit, my post doesnt make any sense after that last one. did they release it in america as well then? (why cant i find a news story?! damn google!)

Then would you prefer us? after that happens it will play into our hands, they will be rivas so we will attack all military sites with HARMs, cruise missiles and surgical strikes. we will then invade by land and seize the oil to keep our economy going.
I condemn the Brahmanist - Hindian genocide of theKashmiris , Sikhs , Muslims , Christians , Nagas , Dalits , Assamese , .... and others in the Brahmanist - Hindian imperialist empire also known as India.
even if it takes us a million years, China will be great once again, and history will repeat itself!!!

Wasn't this report published in early 2000, in the first weeks of Vladimir Putin's reign? If so then the report's findings are understandable given the fact Boris Yeltsin was a drunkard running the country into the ground. But Russia under Putin's watch has done well and I don't see how they would break up. Consider the fact that the breakup of the USSR meant Russia no longer had to subsidise the poor Moslem-majority republics (i.e. Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgikstan and Kazakhstan) or the other poor republics like Georgia, Armenia, Lithuania, Latvia or the nuclear poisoned Ukraine; Russia also owns most of the major energy infrastructure in those republics. Putin has also essentially won the second Chechnya war and Russia under Putin's watch has had very strong economic growth. If anything I see Russia slowly gaining its previous Soviet territories back; Belarus is the first.

I see your point, mainly that there is a pincer movement on Russia. Russia will have some tough choices to make and they will have to choose between three blocs: EU, USA and China. I think Russia will end up choosing the EU for economic ties but China for military ties, but Russia will stay independant politically. The southern flank Russia can take care of, in fact they are considering a declaration of war against Georgia for its support of Chechens.
Nevertheless, the former Soviet republics are increasingly regretting their decision to leave the USSR and hence considering rejoining Russia in some sort of union. And if Russia can stabalise its demographics and get strong population growth, with all that land nobody should doubt Russia's ability to be strong again.

Russia will be stronger compared to Russia now. But compared to other big guys like EU, China, USA, Russia will always be a weak man.
What Russia now has is merely a bit military tech, their economy/cival tech is in no way a match to EU, USA, Japan etc. And this military advantage is only in comparsion with China, India, but China will overtake Russia in military tech in no more than 20 years.
I don't think Russia will be very significant in world stage in any future time.

I bet that the countries closest to The West countries will most likely join NATO in a act of self protection.
I can see this happening...This would be good and bad but these newly joined countries will have to submit to NATO standards.. Maybe even West/East Military technologies will be not far.

A Strong Russia is the best for this world.RUssia has always saved Europes, if not all this world's ass many many times....
Napoleon got crushed because of the ruskies,,,the ottoman empire tried to mess with the russian bear as well and it paid for it...Hitler's army ....and Japan's imperialistic moves got stopped....
Russia has been more useful to the stability, peace and freedom of this world than any other country.....
They will play a vital role in the future since they still have the technology....and west knows that they are useful to all of us by being stronger....and that will be good for all of us...
We need a strong Polar Bear to keep under control the Panda in the Future......

This is all just idle speculation
United We Stand.
"Now, while still pursuing the method of realising our overall strategic concept, I come to the crux of what I have travelled here to say. Neither the sure prevention of war, nor the continuous rise of world organisation will be gained without what I have called the fraternal association of the English-speaking peoples. This means a special relationship between the British Commonwealth and Empire and the United States. Thus, whatever happens, and thus only, shall we be secure ourselves and able to work together for the high and simple causes that are dear to us and bode no ill to any. Eventually there may come—I feel eventually there will come—the principle of common citizenship, but that we may be content to leave to destiny, whose outstretched arm many of us can already clearly see.
Winston Churchill
